Breaking News: A deadly, new strain of China virus propaganda was discovered in South Africa.
Did lockdowns work to limit China virus spread? We may never know. The Ministries of Truth haven’t determined.
The civil liberties issues are the tip of the iceberg.
I hope I’m wrong. The insane [dull and illogical] China virus lockdowns may prove to be the worst [destructive to state, county, municipal economies and tax bases] policy decisions on record [And, that’s saying something!]..
US National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) paper 28304, December 2020 re: China virus lockdowns recession: unemployment will be magnified by two to five times. Over next 15 years estimate 3% increase in mortality rate, 0.5% decline in life expectancy, and 890,000 additional deaths.
As of year-end 2020, the US Treasury Gross Public Debt had risen, year on year, $4.4 TRILLION, or 19%, to $27.6 TRILLION, which is 129% of US GDP ($21.4 trillion 3Q2020). The US Fed bought [monetized, printed legal tender/bank reserves] $3 trillion of that $4.4 trillion US national debt increase. The US Fed now holds $6.8 trillion in US debt securities, up 79% YoY.

Among the many “unique” aspects of the CCP Flu being hammered into the heads of the credulous masses by the media is the notion that the virus somehow has different speeds of transmission depending upon the time of day. This, in my view, more so than any of the other generally silly notions we have been told to believe, is the one that convincingly proves that the practice of rational thinking no longer exists in most of the population.
